The thing about bands is everybody wants to be the next Oasis, and that doesn't mean slogging it out around the toilet [gigs], it means, Give me the check, I need to go to the Levis shop and I need a 1960s Gibson.

It's a sad state when more people retweet than buy records.

I don't much like 'Wonderwall,' but the effect that song has on people, I can't deny it.

I've always been into guitars. We want to put keyboards on, but keyboard players don't look cool onstage, they just keep their heads down. There has never been a cool keyboard player, apart from Elton John.

I don't think people need to know what colour socks I'm wearing today I don't think people need to know what shower gel I'm using. There's too much information in the world, and there's no magic or mystery anymore.

Next year I hope to get a stalker or two because I don't believe you've arrived until you get a stalker.

I remember the 70s constantly being winter in Manchester and the Irish community in Manchester closing ranks because of the IRA bombings in Birmingham and Manchester, and you know the bin-workers' strike, all wrapped up in it... They were violent times. Violence at home and violence at football matches.

Even in the nineties, when it was mad and there were photographers all around the house, it never occurred to me to send someone else out to get cigarettes. It took me five minutes - went for a walk, gave a wave, went back inside.

We shouldn't need riot police at schools.

I've never been asked to do a collaboration. I guess I just don't give off that come-and-get-me vibe. I wouldn't be adverse to doing one with Coldplay or U2 - anyone who sells 50 million albums.
